London tech-metallers Exist Immortal fuse catchy melodies,soaring vocals, epic soundscapes, technical riffs and all-out grooves to create a unique maelstrom of musicianship, which has quickly earned them the reputation of being the UK’s rising tech-metal stars. Since their inception in mid-2011, the band’s relentless touring has seen their ferocious live show hitting stages in France, Belgium, Holland, and throughout Britain. Having already performed at the UK Tech-Metal fest this year alongside Sylosis,Textures and Monuments, as well as having shared other stages with bands like While She Sleeps, Red Seas Fire and Uneven Structure, Exist Immortal will be heading out on the road once more in November. Following the release of their debut EP ‘Insects’ (June 2011) and their critically- acclaimed double-single ‘Insects / Exist’ (April 2012), the band released new single ‘Exist’ on 5 November as a free download to say “Thank you” to their fans for all the loyal support. The single was also accompanied by a phenomenal new video, with direction and breathtaking special effects from Richard Oakes at Dark Fable Media. Exist Immortal’s new mini-album ‘Dream Sequence’ (artwork by Camilla Barbosa-Jefferson, design by Lisa Lan) will be released worldwide on 28 January 2013 via Revolution Harmony.
Frontman Meyrick de la Fuente comments,
Dream Sequence’ follows the concept of predicting the end of the world, in the form of a dream-like premonition from a young child, in which the world is devoured by the sun. The songs follow a logical, somewhat psychological process of falling asleep, the accompanying sensations, and the idea of waking up into a dream where you must fight for survival. The final track signals the end of the dream, as the violence and destruction ends. This concept also serves as a metaphor for the human destruction of the planet, questioning whether anyone has considered the idea of us not actually having a contingency plan should one of the many very-likely apocalypse scenarios arise.
Tracklist:
01 – A Timeless Voyage
02 – Grabbity Gravity
03 – Initiate
04 – Exist
05 – The Fracture
06 – Terminate
07 – The Silence (featuring Fred Brum)
